Marvel’s ‘The Inhumans’ Heads to ABC

The comic book studio — which previously abandoned plans for an Inhumans feature film — is now set to team with ABC Studios for an eight-episode live-action drama series slated to premiere in the fall of 2017.

Few details are known about the project, including its producers, cast and premise. The first two episodes of the series will debut in Imax theaters for two weeks in early September 2017 before moving to ABC, where they will be followed by six subsequent new episodes.

Sources note that this is not the planned Inhumans feature film, which was initially set for July 2019 but pulled from the schedule. It also is not a spinoff of Marvel drama Agents of SHIELD, which has spent a good deal of time exploring a storyline about its Inhumans.
